GENERAL

INTRODUCTION

Vulcan Heated Holding Cabinets are

produced with quality workmanship and

material. Proper installation, usage, and

maintenance of your cabinet will result

in many years of satisfactory

performance.

It is suggested that you thoroughly read

this entire manual and carefully follow all

of the instructions provided.

The CBFT Correctional Holding

Cabinets are “Heavy Duty” and

designed for tough transportation

operations.

INSTALLATION

Before installing, verify that the electrical

service agrees with the specifications on

the rating plate located on the lower

back corner of the cabinet. (Fig.1) If the

supply and equipment requirements do

not agree, do not proceed with

unpacking and installation. Contact

your Vulcan Customer Service

Department immediately.

UNPACKING:

The Cabinet was inspected before

leaving the factory. The transportation

company assumes full responsibility for

safe delivery upon acceptance of the

shipment. Immediately after unpacking,

check for possible shipping damage to

the cabinet.

If the cabinet is found to be damaged,

save the packaging material and

contact the carrier within 15 days of

delivery.

Carefully unpack and place in a work

accessible area as near the installation

position as possible.

1. Open the door and carefully

remove any packaging materials.

2. Peel off vinyl protection film.

CLEANING:

The cabinet should be thoroughly

cleaned prior to putting into service.

Use a mild soap and water solution to

clean the interior of the unit. Never use

harsh chemicals or abrasive pads to

clean the unit. Refer to cleaning

instructions in this manual.

LOCATION:

For efficient cabinet operation, choose a

location that will provide easy loading

and unloading without interfering with

the final assembly of food orders.

The installation location must allow

adequate clearances for servicing and

proper operation.

OPERATION

CONTROLS

ON/OFF SWITCH

The cabinet is pre-set/programmed at the factory at a recommended temperature

of 165⁰ F.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Once the cabinet has been properly

installed by competent service people,

cleaned, and connected to the

appropriate power source, the cabinet is

ready for operation.

TEMPERING:

At least 1 (one) hour prior to loading the

cabinet with the trays, plug the cabinet

into the proper electric outlet, and switch

the rocker switch to the ON position.

Allow the cabinet to run while the doors

remain closed. In 1 (one) hour, the

temperature inside should be 165⁰.

( + / - 10 degrees ).

LOADING:

Insert bulk food trays onto supplied

shelves as quickly as possible, exposing

only small quantities to room

temperature for short periods of time.

Load the cabinet while it is running,

keeping the doors closed as much as

possible. When the cart is loaded, allow

the temperatures to recover for

approximately 10 minutes prior to

transporting cabinet.

UNLOADING:

Once cabinet has been transported,

plug the cabinet into an appropriate

electrical outlet. This will re-activate the

heating element and automatically hold

the temperature at 165⁰. While the meal

trays are being distributed, keep the

door closed as much as possible.

At the completion of the meal service,

restack the trays within the cart, and

return the cabinet and trays to the

washing area.

The temperature in any

heated cabinet will fluctuate with

door opening and transportation.

The operator should always monitor

the food product to insure that it

remains at a proper temperature.

CLEANING

Always UNPLUG

ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY

before cleaning.

Keep the cabinet clean and sanitary so

it will meet your local sanitation code.

DO NOT USE HIGH PRESSURE

WATER OR STEAM ON THE

CABINET, FLOOD WITH WATER, OR

ALLOW ELECTRICAL PARTS TO

BECOME WET.

DAILY:

1. Unplug electrical power supply.

2. Allow cabinet to cool before

cleaning.

3. Clean the interior of the cabinet

with a mild soap and water.

Never use harsh chemicals or

abrasive pads to

clean the cabinet.

4. Rinse and dry with a soft dry

cloth.

5. Clean the exterior of the cabinet

with a clean damp cloth.

HEAVY-DUTY CLEANING:

For heavy-duty cleaning, use warm

water, a degreaser, and a plastic,

stainless steel, or Scotch-Brite pad.

Never rub in a circular motion -- rub

gently in the direction of the steel grain.

Always rinse thoroughly.

STAINLESS STEEL CARE

CLEANING:

Stainless Steel contains 70 – 80% iron,

which will rust if not properly maintained.

Stainless Steel also contains 12 – 30%

chromium, which forms an invisible

passive, protective film that shields

against corrosion.

If the protective film remains intact, the

stainless steel will remain intact.

However, if the film is damaged, the

stainless steel can break down and rust.

PREVENTIVE CARE:

To prevent stainless steel break-

down, follow these steps:

1. Never use any metal tools,

scrapers, files, wire brushes,

or scouring pads (except for

stainless steel scouring pads,)

which will mar the surface.

2. Never use steel wool – which

will leave behind particles that will

rust.

3. Never use acid-based or

chloride containing cleaning

solutions – which will break

down the protective film.

4. Never rub in a circular motion.

Always rub gently in the direction

of the steel grain.

5. Never leave any food products

or salt on the surface. Many

foods are acidic. Salt contains

chloride.

F-47102 (02-14) CBFT SERIES

PRESERVING & RESTORING:

Special stainless steel polishing

cleaners can preserve and restore the

protective film.

Preserve the life of stainless steel with a

regular application of a high-quality

stainless steel polishing cleaner, as a

final step to daily cleaning.

If signs of breakdown appear, restore

the stainless steel surface. First,

thoroughly clean, rinse, and dry the

surface. Then, on a daily basis, apply a

high-quality stainless steel polish

according to manufacturer’s instructions.

HEAT TINT:

Darkened areas, called “heat tint,” may

appear on stainless steel exposed to

excessive heat. Excessive heat causes

the protective film to thicken. This is

unsightly, but is not a sign of permanent

damage.

To remove heat tint, follow the routine

cleaning procedure. Stubborn heat tint

will require heavy-duty cleaning.

MAINTENANCE

The cabinet and its

parts are HOT. Be very careful

when operating, cleaning, or

servicing the cabinet.

Always unplug

electrical power supply before

servicing the cabinet.

Beyond periodic inspections, checking

for frayed or damaged power cord, plug,

hinges, racks, and overall cabinet body,

there is little maintenance required. The

caster axles, however, should be kept

free of foreign objects such as mop

strings, plastic, etc. Depending on the

handling of the cabinet, the casters

should be greased at least quarterly. If

harsh detergents are used, more

frequent greasing will be required.

LOCKOUT / TAGOUT PROCEDURE

Always perform the LOCKOUT / TAGOUT Procedure of your facility

before attempting to service this equipment.

The Lockout / Tagout Procedure is used to protect personnel working on an electrical

appliance. Before performing any type of maintenance or service on an electrically

operated appliance, follow these steps:

1. In electrical box, place unit’s circuit breaker into OFF position.

2. Place a lock or other device on electrical box cover to prevent someone from

placing circuit breaker ON.

3. Place a tag on electrical box cover to indicate that unit has been disconnected for

service and power should not be restored until tag is removed by maintenance

personnel.

4. Disconnect unit power cord from electrical outlet.

5. Place a tag on cord to indicate that unit has been disconnected for service and

power should not be restored until tag is removed by maintenance personnel
